First review: We have been going to this place for about 4 years now. Great south indian dishes and quality remains consistent regardless of the rush. Best thing to try - mysore masala dosa with onionsThey also have unlimited buffet in mornings that is super cheap!Edit 1: Food quality and service has been compromised since last few times.Edit 2: posting on behalf of my wife:So I went around 5:15 pm today evening with my husband as the Nilgiris reopens at 5 pm after a break.I ordered Mysore masala dosa(my usual as I very fond of it) and he ordered mixed vegetable oothapam. We saw that the red tomato chutney was not served so we checked with the servers and they told us it’s not in stock.Since we have been dining in there frequently there, we really loved it but we also realised that the quality of food has been compromised and the services are going downhill even more with each visit. However, we never thought in our wildest of dreams that this visit would turn out to be our last one when I found a piece of plastic in my mouth that I was about to swallow unknowingly while eating my dosa. I got this instinct that something isn’t right as I am trying to chew the food however nothing is happening to it. I immediate took it out and was shocked to see this piece of plastic. We are not sure if I already swallowed some of it. On confronting this to the server who was attending our table, she politely said “oh this happened? We are very sorry, we can exchange the chutney if you want”. That’s it!!! This was a life hazard and that’s what their reaction was as if nothing happened!! It’s a casual thing!!!! What if I ate some of it? What if there was a kid in my place?who will take responsibility for this?

This place has never disappointed me in any of my visits, this review is a long pending one due!! This was the very 1st restaurant I dined in after moving to canada. My friends took me here for dinner on the day I landed and it’s been one of my all time favorite veggie restaurant. Even during Covid I used to order take out and drive all the way from Missisauga to Markham. My entire family loves this place. We had a Panner masala dosa,Rasa Vadai, Pepper idly, Rava masala dosa, Kitchadi and Nutella kids dosa. All of the above items were lip smacking good. We missed their filter coffee and pongal this time since we were there only around closing time. I am also a big fan of their meals the portion for the meal is really huge. I miss the weekend buffet which they used to have before covid. Paneer masal dosa had a delicious filling with some huge stuffing portions, unlike other places were masala comes with a lot of potatoes with little paneer this one was different didn’t even find any potato which I loved, this way they did justice to the paneer masala dosa with a pure paneer stuffing.This is hands down a place which I would recommend to any one asking to have a typical South Indian food. The price point to the items is also budget friendly and has never been expensive compared to any other place which serves proper South Indian meal.

Tried their mysore masala dosa, Mendu vada and payasam. Great in taste, Sambhar and chuntnies were delicious. And they do not charge for extra. I have tried better payasam. And the mysore masala dosa was a bit spicy. But great in taste.

The real taste of Chennai right in Toronto. I’ve had great veg. Food before but this was the most authentic. Variety of flavour on a single platter. Definitely will be back for more.

We went there for lunch on December 26th.Atmospere was very relaxing. Customer Service was satisfactory, for me it's very very important. My husband ordered chana poori but by mistake they served him poori bhaji. When we talked about it, they realised their mistake and offered bhaji free and then served chana too.At that time it wasn't much busy, so we enjoyed our lunch peacefully.Food was delicious. I recommend this restaurant, if anyone wants to eat flavorful South Indian food.Again we went there 2 weeks ago but it was very busy at that time so we didn't prefer to wait there with my toddler.

Great food to start with.The south Indian dishes served are very delicious.When it comes to atmosphere and cleanliness, they could put in a little bit more effort.One person takes your order, brings the food, takes the plates back and cleans the table. I have a reputation of catching the foul smells pretty well and quickly, so I could smell the cleaning cloth from a distance.That smell is transferred to the table and unfortunately interferes with the food smell!I really don’t want to think about how good the kitchen may be…Will take away all the time next time…

Tiny place for authentic South Indian food. I loved the sambar here not to spicy or sweet, just the right balance. We tried the idli vada combo and the idols were soft and the vada crispy, the rava sada dosa was light and the butter paper dosa was yummy and crisp. Hands down some of the best South Indian food I have ever eaten in Toroto.

Went there during weekend, the place gets busy towards the afternoon. Food is a bit late to serve but if ur not on a rush, the wait is worth it. Their menu is reasonably priced and tasty.
